On Wednesday I nipped down to Exeter to take part in a  HotHouse event, organised by the NHF, to discuss the future of social housing. I gave a 10 minute talk at the beginning, offering some thoughts on where things are heading.

On reflection I got a bit distracted by the question of whether institutionalism is a useful framework for thinking about these issues, which I’m pretty sure is a question that was of rather limited interest to the audience. And I probably ended up sounding more negative than I’d intended. But there you go.
